    What flaws would you say are in Stevenson's game? I noticed in the Bellew fight, he gets frustrated when he doesn't get his way.

    Not sure if he's one dimensional but he sure relies a lot on his left hook. I also remember him getting frustrated against Bellew and taking some unnecessary shots which, if I remember correctly, wobbled him quite considerably.

    I think Hopkins would figure him out within one or two rounds and not lose a single round from there on. There's a distinct chance Stevenson is a one trick pony but that remains to be seen. I'm not 100% sold on him however.

    I never once saw him significantly wobbled against Bellew.

    In the Bellew fight, Stevenson proved he's a multi-faceted fighter.

    He can slowly stalk you at range or he can lay back and wait for counters.

    He is a nightmare for anyone at light heavy, and I think he would beat everyone, including, Hopkins, Kovalev, and Ward.

    Ironically, I'd give Hopkins the best chance at getting an upset, despite his age, due to his fluid movement and accuracy.

    Think his defense is shaky and wonder about his chin when Kovalev cracks it.

    Does rely heavily on his left hand, Kovalev beats him without doubt.

    I would give Hopkins a good shot at beating him.

    I've watched Stevensons last 4 fights and the biggest weakness I've noticed in Stevensons game is that he loves deepthroating Trannys all the way to the tash and 2 eggs whilst rubbing fart-sauce into his eye-brows.

    Apparently that applies to his outside the ring activities as well.
